| Chapter 97 |
1 |
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad [thereof]. -
|
2 |
Clouds and darkness [are] round about him: righteousness and judgment [are] the habitation of his throne. -
|
3 |
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about. -
|
4 |
His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. -
|
5 |
The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. -
|
6 |
The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory. -
|
7 |
Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all [ye] gods. -
|
8 |
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD. -
|
9 |
For thou, LORD, [art] high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods. -
|
10 |
Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked. -
|
11 |
Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. -
|
12 |
Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. -
